Davie, FL -- Social Bankruptcy
First things first, I've set this journal friends-only for the indefinite future, including back entries. Sure, cat's already out of the bag on most of that, but it makes me feel a bit better. If you're not on The List, let me know if you want to be. Non-LJ users, get in touch with me and we'll figure something out too. I'll likely be writing here more as the med school roller coaster progresses.
That said, I hereby would like to file for Social Bankruptcy.
I'm not sure what to expect of my life once the curtain lifts and school starts, and I don't want to overcommit myself to my friends. I'd much rather be a deadbeat than a liar. I've tried my best to not commit myself to any social or professional engagements during the upcoming academic year, at least until I have a handle on school and what I need of myself to kick its ass.
I'm not dead, I'm not dying, and I'm not ditching everyone I love; I just have to make sure I can bring my A game between now and June, and this involves resetting my commitments as of now, and figuring it all out once school gets rolling.
If this is indelicate, I apologize for that.
Give me a call sometime this week, especially if we haven't talked in awhile. Classes start on the 11th, and this week is all Orientation and class socials. Meeting my new classmates and de facto family for the next year or few has been adventurous so far, with many delights and isolated landmines. There's still about 2/3 of the class to meet!
